BullishLucid is up nearly 13% on 87% probability of a 25 basis point rate cut in September, with John Murphy upgrading his price target from $3 to $3.55 following the Tech & Manufacturing Day—the first analyst rating not tied to earnings. Short interest is elevated at 27.8% but the speaker sees rising institutional buying and options positioning above $4 as bullish indicators.
Key Arguments
- Rate cut probability reaching 87% for 25bp September cut is driving growth stock rally
- First analyst ratings uncorrelated with earnings, with John Murphy raising target to $3.55
- Institutional buying transactions dominated by buys at 70%
- Options open interest clustering above $4 strike prices
